AccuWage Software

What's New?

12/05/14 - The AccuWage 2014 application is available to test wage reports in the current EFW2-EFW2C formats. The most current
version of AccuWage 2014 works with current and prior year wage submissions. We recommend that wage submitters uninstall prior versions of AccuWage
and AccuW2C before downloading the software for the current tax year.

A new version of AccuWage 2014 (1.1.0) is now available for download.

This version corrects the problem in the RW record for the Social Security Wages and Social Security Tips fields not allowing the entry
of zeroes. If the sum of the Social Security Wages and Social Security Tips is less than the Annual Household Minimum, the submitter can report zeroes
in the Social Security Wages and Social Security Tips fields without encountering an error.

10/27/14 - The AccuWage 2014 application has been updated to include both AccuWage and AccuW2C
in one application. Before testing your file, you must select your submission type, W-2 (Regulars)
or W-2C (Corrections), in the top right hand corner of the application. Below under the 8/25/14 release information,
you will find other changes to the application.

8/25/14 - The AccuWage application has been updated with many additional features
including a new look and feel for the application along with additional edits to help ensure accuracy before the wage file is uploaded to BSO.

The most noticeable change is located on the Test Results screen. This screen will now allow you to filter
the results by four types of issues: Critical, Error, Alert or Informational. When you select ‘Start Testing’
and run your file using AccuWage, all levels of issues found with your wage file will display on the Test Results screen.
If you want to filter your issues by level, click on the individual box(es) next to the issue level to display those records.
A Critical message will stop file processing immediately. You must fix Critical issues before continuing to run the file.
A submission containing Error, Alert and/or Info messages will finish processing, however, Error(s) must be fixed before the
‘Upload to BSO’ button is enabled allowing you to upload your file to the BSO website.

For additional information, please see the Help drop down menu in the top left hand corner of the software and select Contents.

What is AccuWage?

The software allows you to check W-2 (Wage and Tax Statement) and W-2c (Corrected Wage and Tax Statement) reports for correctness before you send them to Social Security.

How does AccuWage work?

First, you need to download and install AccuWage software on your PC. Then, specify the directory where your W2REPORT or W2CREPORT file is located. AccuWage reads the file and informs you of any errors it detects.

Software Policy

The AccuWage software identifies most of the common format errors in wage submissions. Using this software greatly reduces submission rejections. Please be aware that even if no errors are identified by AccuWage, your submission could be returned because of other errors.
